jon: a brand new look at one of the most secretive and controversial policies of the obama administration. good morning, i'm jon scott. jenna: hi, everybody. glad you're with us today. i'm jenna lee. these reports are surfacing of a confidential justice department memo that authorizes the killing of american citizens overseas in drone strikes. now there's a caveat. the killing is allowed if they're leaders of al qaeda or a associated terror group. this alone considered an imminent threat, even if there is it no clear evidence that a specific attack on the united states will take place in the immediate future. and the whole controversial issue sure to come up when the president's pick to head the cia john brennan, testifies at his confirmation hearings later this week. timing matters. chief intelligence correspondent herridge shirge is live in washington with more on this. >> reporter: this is clash between executive powers and congressional oversight. at center of this is the assertion by the obama white house it has the right to target american citizens for death without judicial review.

president barack obama, for rebuking senator barack obama when he was excoriating the bush white house. in the long term the effects of this will be good because it is part of what is called a war on terror which was authorized by congress in the days after 9/11 and it is right that this should be a presidential decision. >> most of the criticism of the president's decision, this is president obama now, we're speaking of, has really focused on his passion for secrecy, rather than on the action itself. so most people are not questioning the right to kill people rather than capture and interrogate them which might be a value to our national security. >> people should acquaint themselves with the federalist papers. secrecy and executive dispatch is the reason we have a president, not just a parliamentary system. and so that's what president obama has discovered too. jon: but we also got rid of kings or, you know, set up a government that doesn't involve kings because we didn't like having one person have the power to sort of order life-and-death decisions. >> right. but we also understand
